The forecast is for perfect conditions on land and sea, from Norway to the Mediterranean. Mendelssohn evokes a perfect sea journey in his Calm Sea and Prosperous Voyage. The sultry heat and vibrant colours Mendelssohn experienced during a sojourn in Italy inspired his joyous and exuberant Italian Symphony, with its whirlwind tarantella finale. The fine weather extends as far as Salzburg, where the internationally acclaimed Silver-Garburg Piano Duo revel in the glorious sunshine of Salzburg’s favourite son, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart’s Concerto for Two Pianos.
